The “compact double” live up to its billing but the room was clean, tidy and well appointed. Location of The Rugby Hotel is fantastic with lots of amenities within walking distance. The only drawback for me was the record-breaking high temperatures during my stay and, of course, the hotel doesn’t offer air conditioning—or even a fan. My top floor room became a sauna and even opening windows provided zero relief. Otherwise, it was a great stay.

Great little bijou sized room, warm and cosy, nice and central, perfect for an overnight stay for a couple, taking in the n’osais event at Benn Hall, a mere 8 minute walk from the hotel. Staff were friendly and the room was spotless, with all the amenities you’d expect for a very reasonably priced and atmospheric hotel.
